Default Money Donations Stolen by Salvation Army Bell Ringers!

Boy is this a crock of poo! I just read that two Salvation Army Bell ringers have stolen the money that they collected!!! And they were PAID bell ringers!

Not only did they steal the cash they collected from people trying to do good from the bottom of their hearts but they stole the pots and bells too!!!

That makes me think they plan to use them again and again to collect money for themselves. The economy is bad but to do something like that for money is just aweful.

That ticks me off because I'm not a well off person and I just donated to a bell ringer the other day! It makes me wonder what good has my donation done!

This happened in Arkansas but you just never know!

One man was collecting in front of a Wal-Mart and the other at Walgreens.

You just never know who you can trust anymore.

That is just down right sickening!!! I wonder if these to thieves are in on this together??

No wonder people have such a hard time trusting charities because so many people use them for their own personal gain.

I don't know how much money was in those collection pots, but I do know however much it was it is now the same amount that those in need will not be getting this year all thanks to two people who thought of only themselves instead of others.

I truely hope that these two people get busted and are forced to repay the charities somehow, as well as some time with out freedom with only a view of bars would also be good I think.
